Costa Rickon Design Firm Studio sax Stilts have been used to elevate the share of Round Angan House Sinfornia Varde in rainforest of peninsula de Osa.
In a 400 square meter (4,305-class foot) house, Costa Rica was built in a clearing in a forest canopy made by a fallen tree.
Two researchers wanted to take advantage of sunlight and blue sky by constructing an off-the-grid house surrounded by trees.
Studio saxLocated in San Jose, designed the house to highlight various attitudes of rainforest.
The team said, “When the house is at the same level, the area around it descends to a great extent.” “One side aligns with the floor of the forest, while the other is highly lifted above the ground.”
The Korcovado is located near the National Park, hosting three percent of the planet’s biodiversity, the design team raised the footprint and raised the house on the stilts to reduce the land aircraft disruptions.
The roof hyperbolic shape adjusts the acute rain and sun of the site, directing the rainwater in natural streams from the edge of the canopy.
Donut -shaped is worn in wooden slats under the roof that radiate from the center to the perimeter of the house.
Under the size of the focal roof, the house makes a ring, elevated on the columns on one side.
The radial room is banded with a slated screen that allows the sound of wind and rainforest to be drawn from the house.
The circumference of the house – rings with a walkway and a delicate railing – interacts with the surroundings, while the center of Okulus forms a sanctuary to deal with the density and darkness of the rainforest, the team explained.
The team said, “With the choice of Jaguar and Houler monkeys in the surrounding area, the central courtyard provides a calm place in the middle of a precious ecosystem,” the team said.
The bedroom is separated in a private nail by two breezeways, while the living room and kitchen form another wedge. A small third wedge floats under the rise of the roof and holds a joint laboratory and library location.
The house falls into earthquakes and high rainfall areas and can only be accessed by a narrow pavement, so the material is taken to rivers or mountains and then taken to the site for construction by local contractors.
Prepared Steel components were distributed during the dry season and gathered by hand.
Meanwhile, the beam with a specific pitch was woven into a grid to form a roof and then covered with fiber cement board and a durable membrane.
The team said, “The house is completely self -sufficient, generating electricity through a photovoltaic array and a hydro turbine in a nearby stream, which also supplies drinking water,” the team said.
“Energy-skilled lighting and sour materials from responsibility, such as teak and cork, reduce environmental effects.”
After construction, the team repeated the native flora, which will increase, regain the house in the rainforest.
